3D model description

The E6 Atlantic is a type of steam locomotive that belongs to the 4-4-2 wheel arrangement classification. This specific design means that it has four front wheels for steering and stability, four driving wheels and two rear wheels to support the weight of the train.

The E6 Atlantic was manufactured by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) and was used primarily on American railroads during the early decades of the 20th century. This type of locomotive was commonly used on long-distance passenger train services and was noted for its speed and efficiency on mainline routes.

The "E6" designation generally refers to the specific locomotive design as classified by the railroad company or manufacturer. "Atlantic" was a commonly used designation for steam locomotives of the 4-4-2 layout.

The E6 Atlantic, along with other steam locomotives of the same era, played a crucial role in the development and expansion of rail transportation in the United States. Although steam locomotives are less common today due to electrification and the adoption of diesel locomotives, the E6 Atlantic is remembered as an important part of railroad history in America.
